An acid reacting with a base to form a salt and water is called . A substance that speeds up a reaction without being consumed is called a . A biological catalyst is called an . When a fuel burns in oxygen it undergoes , releasing energy, this is an reaction. A single compound breaking into simpler substances is a reaction. Increasing the of a reactant increases the reaction rate because particles collide more often. The Haber process is a reversible reaction that reaches a balance between forward and reverse reactions.
